Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
textbook, ultra-classic mineral Caol Ila. Some kind of smoked cocktail made out of oyster and lemon juices. Also traces of exhaust fumes and burnt rubber, ‘in a good way’. With water: it’s its medicinal side that comes to the front, with almost a Laphroaigness. Also more ashes and soot (coal stove)
restaurant Palate
exactly what happened on the nose, plus touches of green olives. So flints, oysters, lemon and ‘good’ rubber (yet it’s not rubbery at all, well, I know what I’m trying to say). Some wax and ashes as well, maybe one or two capers… (briny and a little sour, works very well). With water: all perfect. Smoked and salted lemon juice. Oysters and touches of chilli sauce. Rocks
timer Finish
long, very zesty, very fresh
